Categories: East Asia, Japan, Arts & Culture, Environment, Humor, Photography

Photoreporter Damoncoulter uploaded original pictures of the duck race [1]held at the second Ashigara River festival in Matsuda city (south of Tokyo).
Some hundred yellow, plastic ducks are emptied into the river and “the monies raised are plowed back into environmental organizations that clean up the river and Ashigara area.”
